Marcus Morris Back From Injury, Gordon Hayward Comes Off Bench
6 years agoBoston Celtics power forward Marcus Morris (knee) returned to the lineup Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets after missing the past two games. His return pushed forward Gordon Hayward back to the bench. Morris posted 12 point with eight rebounds across his 20 minutes, hitting 5-for-10 from the field and 2-for-4 from behind the arc. Hayward had a difficult time off the pine, hitting just 2-for-7 from the field to finish with eight points, seven rebounds and two assists over his 24 minutes. It's possible even with Hayward coming off the bench that he plays longer than Morris, at least initially.
